Christina Sandera, Clint Eastwood’s longtime partner, died recently.

She was 61 years old.

They started dating in 2014, soon after meeting at Clint’s restaurant in Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Clint and Christina met for the first time at his California hotel and restaurant, Mission Ranch.

Andera worked as a hostess at the restaurant.

They connected well and have been dating for ten years.

Clancy Eastwood said in a statement released Thursday night, “Christina was a lovely, caring woman, and I will miss her very much.”

According to a Warner Bros. representative, Clint will not be releasing any more information about Christina’s death while he grieves privately.

That was before he started dating Christina. Clint had been married twice before, first to model Maggie Johnson from 1953 to 1987 and then to news anchor Dina Ruiz from 1996 to 2004.

His relationships with other Hollywood stars, like Frances Fisher from Titanic and Sondra Locke from The Gauntlet, have been long-lasting and well-known.

The famous actor has a big family with eight kids.

Clint has six children, including Morgan, Kyle, Scott, Laurie, Kimber, Alison, Kathryn, and Francesca.

In 1954, Laurie was his oldest child. In 1996, Morgan was his youngest.

Though Clint Eastwood and Christina Sandera were together for ten years, not much is known about their relationship.

In spite of going to a number of famous events with him, such as the Academy Awards, Christina usually avoided being the center of attention.

Her social media accounts were private, and she never talked about their relationship in public.

Clinical told CBS News in 2004 that there were “vulnerable people” involved.

“I can protect myself, but they can’t,” he stated.

Christina and Clint, who turned 94 on May 31, found things they had in common despite their shocking 33-year age difference.

On occasion, the two were seen doing things together, like going grocery shopping in June 2014.

In addition to the Cannes Film Festival in 2017, Christina was with Clint at the 2015 Oscars and a screening of his film Sully in 2016.

She even went to the premiere of Clint’s movie “The Mule” in 2018 with some of his children, his first wife, and his granddaughter.

Criterion No. 2, Clint’s newest Hollywood project, is currently in post-production.

The project is his 40th movie as a director and his first movie since 2021’s Cry Macho.
